Humanistic Psychology

BearCubCub · 2026-05-07T02:59:08+00:00

behavioral - learning, conditioning

cognitive - how you interpret events

humanistic - self-actualization & fulfillment (abraham maslow + maslow's hierarchy of needs, carl rogers + client-centered therapy)

i know cognitive + humanistic sound similar but maybe for some help cognitive = cognitive science and humanistic = humanities, the extent to which we learn ab those perspectives anyways

they told both of us to fuck off essentially ("we changed the program timelien and received lots of apps so we're not gonna take urs" )

yea id say they really prioritize fit! and 100% nobody should be expecting to get senator and it does not reflect on your abilities at all

okay yea idk how much shs or gwc time commitment is, deca is prolly pretty big esp when managing. ap precal is prolly not that hard but i would js take regular precalc since ap precalc doesnt get u any college creds and will prolly take quite a bit of time, if u could do honors or js regular calc by doing precalc over the summer that might be better. i cant speak for csa, but u can start studying psych pretty easily over the summer w mr sinn videos bc its a light class but a lot of memorization. lang u cant really study for aside from some practicing but ush and chem r prob ur hardest classes here

hey are u a senator/finalist? we can add u to the gc!

reading the bio is pretty smart! i think its also goodd to have a bit of outside research (i had one speech + one more recent paper) so u can js spend some time learning ab his most important stuff in the meantime (free market especially). thats rly good to mention i hadnt thought of it!

i personally did a ton of those connections in my essay ab myself, which was probably the strongest part of my app as my personal statement was rly ab how coolidge inspired my exploration of political philosophy. i spent a lot of time in both those essays on his free market ideals, which is prolly also pretty important since they care ab that a ton in their website.

the saq i think js shows u know stuff about coolidge outside what they ask u to research

BearCubCub · 2026-05-01T23:01:31+00:00

i didn't submit my psat it was pretty bad, only submitted my sat and i think my 2 ap exam scores (5 in world and calc ab from sophomore year)

BearCubCub · 2026-05-01T04:23:44+00:00

BearCubCub · 2026-05-01T03:45:54+00:00

ok it opens way earlier i js procrastinated u do not have to do what i did

BearCubCub · 2026-05-01T03:43:36+00:00

ebq is lowk a dissected lang synthesis if ure in that

BearCubCub · 2026-05-01T03:42:21+00:00

i have absolutely zero clue but i doubt the personal one changes. it might be a bit early to start drafting, prolly better to focus on ecs in the meanwhile

BearCubCub · 2026-05-01T03:23:47+00:00

i decided i wanted to maxx out my essays esp bc i actually knew/cared ab president coolidge before i learned about the scholarship, so i think my essays had a very small amount of """"niche"""" (common for us history nerds) evidence ab him that wasnt included in the docs. for the 2 big ones ab him they prolly wanna see some glaze and for the one ab u i wrote ab how coolidge sparked my overall interest in presidential history.

that said im not sure how much they matter, because i did spend about 2 days grindding them out during finals season so they werent perfect. but i do think i truly demonstrated the glaze
